Dont make tainted MPs ministers: NGO to PM
May 19th, 2009 | By Sindh Today | Category: India, UnCatNew Delhi, May 19 (IANS) The Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government should set an example by not giving a ministerial berth to any MP with a criminal background, a NGO Said Tuesday.
“With the unambiguous mandate, it is expected that the Congress and the UPA will provide clean and exemplary governance. It would therefore be appropriate that none of the newly elected MPs with criminal cases pending against them are made ministers in the new government,” said Jagdeep. S. Chhokar of National Election Watch (NEW), in a letter sent to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
